Very nice work !

Yes, some nice work you are doing. And your comment about opening up seams to see more rust is so true. It makes me wonder sometimes when you see a really rusted chassis that someone is attempting to repair just how far do they have to cut back, to get to metal that will actually take a weld. In some cases I guess, the rust will remain hidden after the repair is made.

Interesting thread by the way!

WOW! you reall had to cut deep into that chassis! I can see hours upon hours of fab. time creating those new panels. Impressive mate!

The rear torsion bar area, so hard to know how far to go. You are brave, and you will sort it, but as Justin says it will take time. Still better though than sitting watching TV and achieving nothing.

This thread like Justins I like. (But in saying that the other early 356 resto's in Australia listed on here are also most interesting and very attended to with much skill.)
